I always thought it was a bit of a shame that DVDA/SACD never made it as a market successor. However, in a lot of ways it's because of the proliferation of the MP3 market; once again, something 'good enough' audio quality with great new features like being able to email them around and portable devices stole the consumer dollars far away from the more expensive SACD rigs.

SACD is still popular amongst audiophiles of course, though I wonder how many truly do notice the difference, or find that the missing wad of cash in their pocket is the real cause of their newfound comfortable-listening.
